I was already trying to figure out where to buy my next coffeemaker, and how to pay for it with my depleted budget when I saw your post. My last coffeemaker was a good one; a Cuisinart that I got only 6 months ago, so I couldn't understand why this was happening. Anyway, followed your great instructions and found a piece of paper towel that was clogged in the valve. It works great again; thank you so much Shane for taking the time to help out clueless "handymen" like myself. THIS is what sites like KZread are so fantastic at. My furnace stopped working a few months ago, but thanks to KZread (again), someone walked me through the necessary steps needed to get it working again, saving me costly repairs. Again, thanks for your help Shane!

Helpful video, thanks for taking the time to post this. I own a Cuisinart coffee brewer that was having the exact same issues and sure enough, once I pulled the hose off and removed the check valve I saw it plugged up with coffee grounds/resin. I see now how no matter what manufacturer it is, Cuisinart, Mr. Coffee or whatever, they look pretty much the same inside. We were getting water leaking out the bottom, excessive steam causing condensation on the cabinets above the brewer, short potting (12 cups of water poured in but only 6 cups being dispensed) in addition to the popping noises as well. I rodded out all the hoses, the heater/pump assembly, disassembled then used a nylon brush and pick to clean the spray head and now it's working great. It brews the full 12 cups now, no leaks (knock wood), hardly steams at all and is only popping at the end of the brew cycle when there's no more water. The overall flow is great, I just need to buy some more filters for it now.

I threw away at least one or two prior to getting frustrated enough to open one and find the issue. The unit in this video was located in a vacation rental, and was used by many different random people. The issue is quite common, and could be solved by the manufacturer including a screen over the drain in the tank. I personally suspect the lack of a screen is intentional, as they sell a lot more units by not doing so.

Look for a “security bit set” and you’ll likely find what you need. You can probably find one at a local hardware store. The manufacturer does not want you to repair it, they’d much rather sell you a new one, and a security bit screw is a cheap way to cause more people to give up. They will claim they used them for “your safety”. Just unplug it and you’ll be fine. Additionally, a small screen over the water tank drain hole would solve the entire issue, and there is no way they don’t know this…

But the star bits I got yesterday won't fit into screwdriver handle belonging to the computer tools. So I bought yet amother screwdriver set because the adapter looked narrower but it proved not to be. Fortunately all of these new tools together weren't expensive, and I'm sure they'll come in handy for other projects.

I was finally able to get this done after I ordered a tri-wing screwdriver from Amazon. On mine the ducts were clear so it was super easy to fond the ball valve. There were old coffee grounds on both sides of the valve so I used compressed air to clean out the metal C-shaped duct under the hotplate just to be sure. After cleaning out the ball valve and reinserting it, I noticed that it wasn't watertight in either direction, but it was airtight. Is that normal? Anyway it works now.

Sounds like you have the second most common problem, hard water mineral deposits forming inside the heating element. In this case, the best form of prevention would be using distilled water or reverse osmosis water in your coffee maker instead of tap water. Good to hear you got it working.

Any comments on why my coffee maker brews a whole pot one day and only a 1/4 pot another day. When it stops brewing, the red LED goes out. Also, some days the red LED and the coffee maker stay on after the full brew, and other days, after the full brew it's... lights out/nobody's home. Thanks, man. Do you like a challenge? This thing is driving me nuts. Btw, a new replacement is $149 on Amazon. I got a Hamilton-Beach coffee maker at our summer place about 18 years ago and it works hard all the time we are there. It cost me $42.

@shanesgettinghandy

Жыл бұрын

I know it might not sound related, but the first thing I’d check is still the one way valve I showed in this video. If the valve is partially clogged, the coffee maker will shut off prematurely when it “senses” no more water is left. It’s surely possible this isn’t the issue, but it’s where I’d start.

Will brew about half a pot a day then the rest is still sitting in the filter unless you press the carafe up against the spout above. Then it will continue to decant. It started doing this a month ago. Any ideas?

@shanesgettinghandy

Aside from checking for crud or a dislodged gasket underneath the basket plunger, I don't know what else would cause such a thing. Good luck!

I have a Mr. Coffee RF series 12 cup programable coffee maker, when I press the "Brew Now" button to heat the water it starts just fine but then stops 2 seconds later and gives the all done beep without having brewed any of the water, is it an electrical problem or a simple cleaning problem? It does the same thing with the "Clean" option, it just won't heat any liquid.

@shanesgettinghandy

Жыл бұрын

It’s likely the same problem. When the valve gets entirely clogged, the water cannot enter the heating element, and the heating element very rapidly heats above boiling temperature. This signals to the machine that the water is “all gone” and it “completes” the brew almost immediately. Clean the valve as I show in this video and it will almost certainly fix the issue. You probably have a lot of grounds down inside the tube as well. It all needs a good cleaning.
